Sulphur chemistry in the L1544 pre-stellar core
Charlotte Vastel, David Quénard, Romane Le Gal +7
The L1544 pre-stellar core has been observed as part of the ASAI IRAM 30m Large Program as well as follow-up programs. These observations have revealed the chemical richness of the…
The nitrogen isotopic ratio of HC3N towards the L1544 prestellar core
P. Hily-Blant, A. Faure, C. Vastel +3
The origin of the heavily fractionated reservoir of nitrogen in comets remains an issue in the theory of their formation and hence of the solar system. Whether the fractionated res…
Astrochemical evolution along star formation: Overview of the IRAM Large Program ASAI
B. Lefloch, R. Bachiller, C. Ceccarelli +27
Evidence is mounting that the small bodies of our Solar System, such as comets and asteroids, have at least partially inherited their chemical composition from the first phases of…
Seeds of Life in Space (SOLIS). III. Zooming into the methanol peak of the pre-stellar core L1544
Anna Punanova, Paola Caselli, Siyi Feng +41
Towards the pre-stellar core L1544, the methanol (CHOH) emission forms an asymmetric ring around the core centre, where CHOH is mostly in solid form, with a clear peak 4000…
Deuterium and N fractionation in NH during the formation of a Sun-like star
M. De Simone, F. Fontani, C. Codella +7
Although chemical models predict that the deuterium fractionation in NH is a good evolutionary tracer in the star formation process, the fractionation of nitrogen is still…
Discovery of the ubiquitous cation NS+ in space confirmed by laboratory spectroscopy
J. Cernicharo, B. Lefloch, M. Agundez +8
We report the detection in space of a new molecular species which has been characterized spectroscopically and fully identified from astrophysical data. The observations were carri…
